Lynn worries me though, that dude can get sideways real quick.


I think ultimately, Wacha has more upside, but he's probably also a bigger risk being a rookie. Lynn at least has some playoff experience. If you use 4, I'd use Lynn on a short leash and that means if it's 1 inning, it's one inning and bring in Wacha.

I am very sorry fellow STL fans. I really thought the Rams were a 10-6 or 9-7 team . I was wrong.

Rams are just dog shite. Don't think I've watched a game since Warner left. I've tried but it truly is just painfully boring to watch.

It sucks man. I love it when we matter. We have a real coach and a GM that seems to know what he is doing.
Maybe I have had too much to drink but I think the OC is the issue much like it was with MU last year. We have a go fast bunch on offense but our OC is Marty's boy.

That may be a problem, but the team in general looks like shite. Lot of money tied up in Finnegan, who looks awful this year.

The offense is absolutely one of the worst if not the worst in the NFL, no run game, shite overpaid O line, bad receivers, and a QB who doesn't seem to have progressed at all. Sam would have thrown 5 picks tonight had the defense played even remotely well.

Our WR draft picks over the past 2 years all look like busts, cook is playing half assed.

It's just a bad bad situation.

As much as I love Brian S for being a gator, he's not a very good OC, IMO. Really wasn't that great with the Jets (even before Sanchez), either.

I understand when people say not a chance in hell, but when I see the Rams play like last night, I truly think they could lose to say Bama's team from last year(not so sure about this year's team).

I think Sam is worse this year. I think he is a bust. If he does not get right this year we may have to get a QB.
Murray or Bridgewater?

I'd take murray. He has really good numbers against a lot better competition.

Murray is a toothpick though. That worries me in the NFL. He could get broken in half behind the Rams OL.

And I agree on your point about Bridgewater - he's good, no doubt, but the level of competition he's faced isn't impressive.

Really? Would there be any consideration for JFF? With all his issues, I don't think he's gonna hang around college any longer.

He could put buts into the seats though and brings flash to a team that could use it.

On the other hand though our O line would probably ruin the kid hard.

See, I was thinking with our O line what we need is exactly a player like JFF. Someone who doesn't like to sit in one place for too long and is most comfortable scampering around. I don't know how long that style lasts in the NFL, but a pocket passer will get destroyed with this team.

Shockingly so. It's as if he's afraid to try and hit receivers in stride. He plays like he doesn't have the confidence in his throws. Constant check downs. No quick throws like the type you would see from Brees or even Chase Daniel. You know what I'm talking about, the kind of throws that actually make a guy get open even when he's covered.

Yeah, he can't do that. Rather, someone or something is telling him he can't, because he sure as hell seems to have the arm for it.

No matter what the problem is, he's toast here, and they'll have to move on. They have destroyed his head and probably his body. I don't look for this QB/RB problem to be solved anytime soon, this team will suck for years to come.

I'm so over the Rams that I don't even want to talk about it, but then I want to bitch to high heaven about them because I'm so pissed.

When there was talk of them moving, I was like yeah? Ok. Whatever. Really don't care. As sucky as Mizzou's season was last year it was still 1000 x's more entertaining than the Rams.

I know kilo. Not only have I lost all interest in them, I actually can't stand to watch them. Just can't handle the way they play.

As fricked up as STL is, I'd rather the Rams leave then spend anymore taxpayer money into that franchise
